Summary

Turns out much of the advice weve been given about how to  make the world a better place turns out to be dead wrong. Donating  to certain charities will do thousands of times more good that  donating to others. Non-profits that choose to carry out one  program instead of another will be hundreds of times less  successful than they could be, regardless of how bright,  hard-working, and compassionate their staff may be.  The majority of Americans are involved in charitable work. Most  of us donate. Many of us volunteer. Millions go to work each day at  a non-profit organization. By taking a more rigorous, calculated  approach to charity, we can learn how to do dramatically more good.  We can learn how to truly change the world.  This book shows you how. Drawing on fifteen years of non-profit  experience, a working knowledge of thousands of academic studies on  what drives charitable and behavioral decisions, interviews with  non-profit and philanthropy professionals, and years of reading,  writing, and lecturing on how to effectively bring about social  change.  The first book to address how a whole host of psychological and  social factors combine to drive us toward making bad charitable  decisions, its unique content and frank approach will help it stand  out in the field of non-profit and philanthropy books.
